Question

5 how does groundwater become a spring? a it flows out through an opening in earths surface b a layer of soil and rock becomes over - saturated c impermeable rock becomes permeable d its heated by rocks below earths surface

Explanation:

A spring is formed when groundwater, which is water stored beneath the Earth's surface, flows out through an opening in the Earth's surface. Over - saturation of soil and rock just means more water in the ground but not necessarily a spring. Impermeable rock becoming permeable doesn't directly define a spring formation. Heating by rocks below the surface is more related to geothermal activity and not the basic process of spring formation.

Answer:

A. It flows out through an opening in Earth's surface
